CROSSCULTURE CURATION POST || 05/01/2022
Hello beautiful people!
@kemmyb here 👋
Welcome to the New Cross Culture's Daily Curation where we bring you some amazing posts from members across communities of different cultures, focusing on but not limited to bilingual posts.
The Cross Culture community, was created by @whatamidoing.
It is a community that supports authors who make posts that share the realities of different cultures first hand, as well as different perspectives and experiences. We look for ways in which cultures can become crosscrossed and enlightening while going beyond stereotypes associated with certain culture.
The authors whose articles have been chosen for this week are all writing content of high quality, which focus on the various topics:
- All bilingual posts
- Posts in regional communities or tags
- Posts related to language or culture
- Posts in our cross culture community
Cross Culture's daily bulletin aims to bring to light all authors whose articles would otherwise remain unnoticed and lost in the platform, therefore we tend to reward authors who create quality posts, giving them a fair chance to establish themselves on the platform.
Howbeit, that's only the half of it!!!
After careful selections, our curators which come from diverse cultures will single out the most outstanding articles among all those curated to create a weekly shout out to the authors from the Top posts of the week.
📌Therefore, here are this week's awesome authors and their posts:

Arab Coffee ☕😍 by @rafik75
Serving Arab coffee is an important aspect of hospitality in Arab societies which is seen as a symbol of generosity. Traditionally, coffee is brewed in front of the guests. The preparation ritual begins with the selection of the beans, which are placed in a flat iron pan and lightly roasted over a wood fire. The roasted beans are then placed in a copper mortar and crushed with a copper pestle. The ground coffee is placed in a large copper coffee maker, poured water into it and put it on the stove. Once the coffee is ready, it is poured into a smaller coffeemaker and then served to guests in small cups.

Many thanks for the mention😊
I love the objective of this community. We live in a multicultural world of which we do not know much, there is so much variety, but in the variety is the taste. I love that this space allows us to know from a distance the highlights of many cultures, traditions, foods, landscapes and many others. Success to all of you 👏.
I love the little things, the subtle differences that make everyone unique, shaped by their country and their experiences and their family and the people they surround themselves with.
Nothing better than admiration for cultural diversity in the world. My country is home to many brothers of different nationalities. In my particular case, I have respected and admired each of their customs and culture. Greetings from Venezuela
